Will it work in Israel?

An import can fail in three ways:

• It gets taxed. See the personal-import-tax skill.
• It never arrives.
• It arrives and cannot be used.

This skill covers the last one. Read the voltage and plug from the listing's own text and photos. Ask the user to paste the specs or describe the photos if you cannot open the page. Never infer them from price or category.

Israeli mains

Plugs:

Voltage is the expensive question. An adapter changes the plug shape, not the voltage.

• 100–240 V (dual voltage): fine. Most chargers, laptop bricks and USB supplies are dual voltage.
• 220 V or 230 V: fine.
• 110 V or 120 V only: will not work on Israeli mains. Plugging it in directly can destroy it. A step-down transformer sized to the load costs more than most heating or motor appliances. Treat this as a fail.
• Voltage not stated on something mains-powered: unknown. Treat it as a fail until the seller confirms.
• 60 Hz-only motors and mains-timed clocks run slow or hot on 50 Hz. This is rare, but check motorised goods.

Plug type is usually a variant, not a listing property. One listing offers US, EU, UK and AU plugs, and the default is often US. Name which variant to select.

Restricted or awkward categories

Flag these for the user to check. This is not a customs ruling. The rules change, so verify the current rule with a web search or the Tax Authority's customs pages.

• drones / UAVs;
• radio transmitters, jammers, signal boosters, walkie-talkies outside approved bands — Ministry of Communications approval (אישור משרד התקשורת);
• WiFi or Bluetooth devices from unusual bands;
• laser pointers above low classes;
• e-cigarettes and vaping products;
• medicines, supplements, medical devices — Ministry of Health;
• seeds, plants, soil, animal products — Ministry of Agriculture;
• knives and weapon-like items;
• child car seats and other products that must meet an Israeli standard (תקן ישראלי).

Ordinary personal imports in reasonable quantities usually do not need an Israeli standards mark at the border. The goods are still uncertified, which matters for insurance and for anything hard-wired. Say this plainly, without overstating or dismissing it.
